I sent a PM to UtwigMU to get on the list. Just thought I'd post in here too. I'm still not sure if I'd use the account, but it can't hurt to get me a username early on.

Oh. I have to. Well.

OK, I updated the list and added Rakido and agallag.

As for PM, I intended PM only for sending email for invite to be sent to, since I imagine, most of us would not want to post mail here due to spam harvesting worms (name AT domain DOT com might get arround that).

Therefore I'd like to ask for everyone to post requests here, so that they are transparent and others may see them and add them to list.

Since I expect those added to the list to start getting invites and I got quite a few already, I think next ones might be invited by fellow MURCers. Therefore I'd like to keep this as transparent and IMO the time based criteria is the most fair. The only exception was to ask for long standing members to get first invites in order to increase chance of the rest to get invites from them.

This is why IMO posting requests here is better than PM since others can see it and we might also get arround people being left out due to those with invites not seeing PM's or due to lack of clarity.

If those who already have gmail get a spare invite which they can pass on to a fellow MURCer, they should IMO post here and notify via PM the next person on the list in order to get email addy to send invite to.

Thus we can update list and keep everything fair and transparent.

erm... may i be added to the list?

[agallag]

Makes sense. So, if you want on the list, these are the steps.

- post stating that you want on the list. No email address required.
- repost updated list in your post
- when someone gets an invite, PM next person on list requesting email address
- once you've been invited, update the list again to reflect that.

Here's the latest list:
